Nothing but Wet

Five Wet, Wild Dates to Beat the Heat

Going to be crazy hot again this week. So crazy hot, it suddenly seems like a good idea to call a date and
get underwater... in a shark tank. Or make some margaritas, rent a double-lane Slip ’N Slide and see where
the evening goes. Here are five wild water dates to help you beat the heat.

WATER WINGS

Hoverboarding over the Ocean

The plan: Just the two of you. On a boat, with a drink. Your destination: a hovering,
water-propelled platform that rises almost 30 feet in the air. With you on it.The payoff: A bird’s-eye view of The Queen Mary. A cooling breeze. Somebody
earning the nickname “McFly.”

Cuddling in an Underwater Cage

The plan: Pick up date. Drive to San Diego. Depart for Baja’s Guadalupe Islands. Enter
metal cage for two. Meet Jaws’s angry stepson.The payoff: Some serious in-cage intimacy. A new appreciation for your life. Even if it’s
kind of hot out.

Tandem Parasailing over the Westside

The plan: Soaring 800 feet over the ocean near Venice and Santa Monica. Side-by-side. Under
a huge smiley-face parachute.The payoff: What happens in the lower reaches of the troposphere stays in the lower reaches
of the troposphere.
